Doing Without ConceptsEdouard MacheryNew York: Oxford University Press, 2009296 pages, ISBN: 0195306880 (hbk); $65.00This paper offers a critical review of Edouard Machery's Doing Without Concepts, with a particular emphasis on an approach to concept
individuation that is consistent with many of Machery's arguments but has the potential to avoid his eliminativist conclusion. The approach agrees with Machery's claims to the effect that prototypes, exemplars, theories (and so on) form a heterogeneous class, but construes these theoretical
entities as implementing a unified, albeit coarse-grained, notion of a concept.
